Book Description
Do you want your child to think science is fun? Do you want science be easier for them in class? Continuing the H2O molecule's journey from the 5-Star "Bonding with Friends: H2O" story, kids will understand why ice melts and water boils at the molecular level in a fun way through rhyme! This complex scientific concept is broken down in a simple way accompanied with colorful illustrations from children's daily lives leaving them with a practical understanding of thermodynamics. Kids will find this subject, and science classes overall, more approachable and interesting potentially opening new possibilities for their future that they may have assumed are "too hard." Children of all ages are extremely smart! These seemingly difficult concepts just need to be explained in a way that kids can wrap their head around with examples from their everyday lives like snow, ice, boiling water, and dancing. Key concepts children will learn: The role temperature plays in phase change. The temperature that water boils and freezes (both Celcius and Fahrenheit mentioned in the rhyme). Definitions of "melting point" and "boiling point." Examples of solid water and gaseous water vapor from their daily lives. In this science book for kids, children will be entertained by the vibrant illustrations, cute characters, and everyday references that all readers can relate to. Written by an experienced Chemical Engineer and mother, "Phase Change with Friends" strikes the right balance between education and entertainment that will inspire your child to enjoy science and become interested in STEM topics from an early age! These poems will appeal to an elemenary school reader, the colorful picture book will appeal to a preschooler, and the chemistry concepts will challenge a middle school reader.

Book Description
Looking for a science book that your child will want to read? This rhyming picture book has two stories in one! "Bonding with Friends: H2O & Helium" has a story about the water molecule and another story about helium. These stories are fun to read because of the rhyme and the concepts are easy to understand with colorful pictures. Children will be entertained by the vibrant illustrations, cute characters, and everyday references that all readers can relate to. This not only has a science lesson but also an inclusive message which teaches kids that it is perfectly acceptable to be an introvert which is how Helium behaves compared to other elements that bond to form molecules like water. These poems will appeal to a preschooler, the bright colors will appeal to a toddler, and the chemistry concepts will challenge an elementary or middle school reader. The illustrations that accompany the story provide examples of where these elements and molecules are found so that children can end the story with a practical understanding water and helium that can be applied to their everyday lives (washing their hands, bath time, seeing a party balloon, looking up at the stars, etc.). Written by an experienced Chemical Engineer and mother, "Bonding with Friends" strikes the right balance between education and entertainment that will inspire your child to enjoy science and become interested in STEM topics from an early age!

Life Is in the Transitions
Author: Bruce Feiler
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 1594206821
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 369
Book Description
A New York Times bestseller! A pioneering and timely study of how to navigate life's biggest transitions with meaning, purpose, and skill Bruce Feiler, author of the New York Times bestsellers The Secrets of Happy Families and Council of Dads, has long explored the stories that give our lives meaning. Galvanized by a personal crisis, he spent the last few years crisscrossing the country, collecting hundreds of life stories in all fifty states from Americans who’d been through major life changes—from losing jobs to losing loved ones; from changing careers to changing relationships; from getting sober to getting healthy to simply looking for a fresh start. He then spent a year coding these stories, identifying patterns and takeaways that can help all of us survive and thrive in times of change. What Feiler discovered was a world in which transitions are becoming more plentiful and mastering the skills to manage them is more urgent for all of us. The idea that we’ll have one job, one relationship, one source of happiness is hopelessly outdated. We all feel unnerved by this upheaval. We’re concerned that our lives are not what we expected, that we’ve veered off course, living life out of order. But we’re not alone. Life Is in the Transitions introduces the fresh, illuminating vision of the nonlinear life, in which each of us faces dozens of disruptors. One in ten of those becomes what Feiler calls a lifequake, a massive change that leads to a life transition. The average length of these transitions is five years. The upshot: We all spend half our lives in this unsettled state. You or someone you know is going through one now. The most exciting thing Feiler identified is a powerful new tool kit for navigating these pivotal times. Drawing on his extraordinary trove of insights, he lays out specific strategies each of us can use to reimagine and rebuild our lives, often stronger than before. From a master storyteller with an essential message, Life Is in the Transitions can move readers of any age to think deeply about times of change and how to transform them into periods of creativity and growth.
